Mark 14 (SBS) · Opened

1Chiyi vali hanu mazuva overe niwuseni kusika mukiti we Paseka ni Mukiti we nkonko isena Mulungo. Mukulwana wavaPurisita ni vañoli vavali kunganisisa mwete vawolere kuwonda Jesu ni kumwihaya.Now the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread were two days away, and the chief priests and scribes were looking for a covert way to arrest Jesus and kill Him.

2Ka kuti vavali kuwamba. “Isiñi hamukiti, iri kuti kanji kuvuki inyakanyaka mukati kavantu.”“But not during the feast,” they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.”

3Lyahanu Jesu avena mwa Betani mwizuvo ya Simoni we mbingwa, sina havali kwikere he tafule, mukulwakazi chakeza kwali ni votera lya alabasitera lyomunikiso undula ahulu, uvali wa menzi a nandi. Cha pwachula ivotera ni kuitira hamutwi wakwe.While Jesus was in Bethany reclining at the table in the home of Simon the Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She broke open the jar and poured it on Jesus’ head.

4Mi kuvena vamwi vavali kuvengete. Chiva wamba kukati kavo nivati, “Ivakanzi lye shinyehero iyi?Some of those present, however, expressed their indignation to one another: “Why this waste of perfume?

5Iwu munukiso uvali kuswanera kuwuziwa kumashereñi a hitilira miyanda yotatwe ye dinarii, ni kuha kuva shevete. Imi vavali kumu kalimera.It could have been sold for over three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor.” And they scolded her.

6Kono Jesu chawamba, “Mu musiye yenke, mu mu kataleza nzi? Wapanga chitu chilotu kwangu.But Jesus said, “Leave her alone; why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful deed to Me.

7Mwina inako yonse vashevete nanwe, mi inakao yonse imwa saka muwola kupanga zilotu kuvali, kono kete muve name inako yonse.The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them whenever you want. But you will not always have Me.

8Wapanga icho cha wola: wa singa muvili wangu haku zikwa.She has done what she could to anoint My body in advance of My burial.

9“Chovu niti ni wamba kwenu, konse uko ivangeli kwete ikakutaziwe mwi kanda yonse, icho chapanga uzu mukulwakazi kachika wambiwe, mwikupuzo yakwe.”And truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is preached in all the world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.”

10Lyinu Judasi Isikariyota, zumwe wava vena ikumi ne tovere, a va yendi ku vapurisita vakulwana kuti a wolye kumuva wuzukiza choku muva tambika.Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus to them.

11Lyahanu mukulwana wa mapurisita hazizuwa, vavali kutavite ni kumu sepisa kumuha mashereñi. Chatanga kulola inzira yate awane chivaka cho kumutambika kuvali.They were delighted to hear this, and they promised to give him money. So Judas began to look for an opportunity to betray Jesus.

12Mu izuva lye ntazi lye chinkwe chisena mumera, chinga va panga chitavero che imberere ye paseka, varutwana vakwe choku mucho kuti, “U saka kuti tuye kuhi kutu wola kuka ku vakanyeza zilyio ze paseka, iri kuti ukalye zilyo ze paseka?On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover lamb was to be sacrificed, Jesus’ disciples asked Him, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?”

13Choku tuma vovere va varutwana vakwe choku vacho kuti, “Mu kwiya mu muleneñi, ku zwaho mumu wane mukwame yo hindite kahambwe kamenzi mwami katane. Mu muichirire.So He sent two of His disciples and told them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jug of water will meet you. Follow him,

14Mu inzuvo yeeti a ke injire, mu muichirire mo mi muka cho kusi inzuvo kuti, 'Muruti ucho kuti, inzuvo yangu yeti ni lyire ipaseka ne varutwana vangu yina kuhi?'”and whichever house he enters, say to the owner, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is My guest room, where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?’

15Mwa a ka mutondeza inzuvo inkando yi vakanyizwe yahe wulu, muka tuvakanyeze mwateni.”And he will show you a large upper room, furnished and ready. Make preparations for us there.”

16Varutwana ni va zwa ni kuyenda mumuleneñi. Mi ni va ka wani chimwe ne chimwe china sina mwa a vawambiri kuvali, mi.So the disciples left and went into the city, where they found everything as Jesus had described. And they prepared the Passover.

17Ha chivali chitengu, chakeza ni vekumi nivovere.When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve.

18Sina havavali kwi kere he tafule ni kulya, Jesu chati, “Chovuniti ni wamba kwenu, wumwina kwenu yo lya name.”And while they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, one of you who is eating with Me will betray Me.”

19Vonse vavali lizuwi inkumbu, mi zumwi ni zumwi chiva wamba kwali, “Luli isiñi me?”They began to be grieved and to ask Him one after another, “Surely not I?”

20Jesu che tava ni kuvawamba kuvali, “nje zumwi wa vena ikumi ne vovere, yozo yo sunsa name inkonko mu kasuva.He answered, “It is one of the Twelve—the one who is dipping his hand into the bowl with Me.

21Kakuti Mwana wo Muntu mwayende mwinzira iyo mañolo awamba kuyamana naye. Mi ku mayivite kozuo mukwame yo veteka Mwana o Muntu! Ku vaa shiyeme kuti kalyi uzu muntu na sana a va zalwa.”The Son of Man will go just as it is written about Him, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed! It would be better for him if he had not been born.”

22Chi va si kwete kulyia, Jesu cha hinda chinkwe, ni kuchi fuyola, ni kuchi jamona. Ava chivahi ni kuwamba, “Muhinde ichi. Uwu chimuviri wangu.”While they were eating, Jesus took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, saying, “Take it; this is My body.”

23Chahinda i komoki, nikulitumera, ni kuitambika kuvali, mi vonse chiva nya kuili.Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it.

24Chawamba kuvali, “Aya jamalaha angu echilikani, malaha awo etilirwe vangi.He said to them, “This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many.

25Chovu niti niwamba kwenu, Kasane kani nywe hape kwezi zihikantu hape ze veine kusikira kusikira lina izuva hate kani inwe mumuvuso we Ireeza.”Truly I tell you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it anew in the kingdom of God.”

26Hachiva manite kuzimba luzimbo, chiva yenda hanze kwi Lundu lya Olive.And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

27Jesu chata kuvali, “Muvonse mumunitiyire, kakuti kuñoletwe, 'Muni kave mulisani mi imberere kazi hasane.'Then Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away, for it is written: ‘I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’

28Kono china mana kuvuswa hape, Kanili tangize kwenu kuya kwa Galileya.”But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”

29Pitorosi choku mucho kuti, “Nangati vonse kava ku tiyire ime keti ni ni ku tiyiire.”Peter declared, “Even if all fall away, I never will.”

30Jesu chamu wambira kuti, “Cho vuniti nikuwambira, masiku a sunu, mukombwe ni useni kulira kovere, moni sapule kotwatwe.”“Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “this very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.”

31Kono Pitorosi chati, “Haiva nini wola kufwa nawe, kete nikusampule.” Vonse vava chiva panga i sepiso i swana.But Peter kept insisting, “Even if I have to die with You, I will never deny You.” And all the others said the same thing.

32Va veza ku chivaka chi sumpwa Getesimani, Jesu cho kucho varutwana vakwe, “Mu ikale a ha chini rapera.”Then they came to a place called Gethsemane, and Jesus told His disciples, “Sit here while I pray.”

33Cha hinda Pitorosi, Jakovo ni Johani choku zwa navo, choku tanga ku wirirwa ne ku katazeha a hulu.He took with Him Peter, James, and John, and began to be deeply troubled and distressed.

34Cha wamba kuvali, “Luhuho lwangu lu zuwire ku chisa a hulu, nanga kwi nako yefu. Mu shale hanu ni kutonda.”Then He said to them, “My soul is consumed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch.”

35Jesu na ya ha vusuzana, choku wa hansi, choku rapera kuti kambe ni ku wolyeka, iyi inako imu hitirire kwali.Going a little farther, He fell to the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour would pass from Him.

36Nati, “Abba, Tayo, zintu zonse zi wolyeka nawe. Zwisa iyi inkomoki kwangu. Kono isiñi chini saka, Kono yako.”“Abba, Father,” He said, “all things are possible for You. Take this cup from Me. Yet not what I will, but what You will.”

37Chaka vola ni kwiza kuvawana valere, mi chawamba kwa Pitorosi, “Simoni, ulere? Wakangwa kutonda nagati i hola yonke?Then Jesus returned and found them sleeping. “Simon, are you asleep?” He asked. “Were you not able to keep watch for one hour?

38Mutonde ni kulapera iri kuti kanji mwinjiri mumuliko. Luhuho che niti lusaka, kono inyama i kangitwe.”Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”

39Hape chayenda kule ni kukalapera, mi ava severisi manzwi a swana.Again He went away and prayed, saying the same thing.

40Hape cha vola ni kukavawana valere, kakuti menso avo avali kulema mi kena vavali kwizi cho kuwamba kwali.And again Jesus returned and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy. And they did not know what to answer Him.

41Cho kuiza lo vutatu na vacho kuti, “Mu si lere ne ku pumula? Muvuke! inako chi ya sika. Muvone! Mwana o Muntu cha vekwa mumanza ava ezalivi.When Jesus returned the third time, He said, “Are you still sleeping and resting? That is enough! The hour has come. Look, the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

42Mu vuke; tuyende. Muvone, uzo yo ni veteka wina hafuhi.”Rise, let us go. See, My betrayer is approaching!”

43Cho usi kwete ku wamba, Judasi, zumwe wa vena ikumi ne tovere, choku sika, nena ni vantu vangi ni va ka kwete mikwale ni masavule, kukazwa ku vapurisita vakulwana, n vañoli, ni vakulwana.While Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests, scribes, and elders.

44Lyahanu yo muveteka avava here chisupo, kuti, “Uzo yete ni chunchune nji yena.”Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The One I kiss is the man; arrest Him and lead Him away securely.”

45Judasi hasika, pona aho cheza kwa Jesu nikuwamba, “'Rabbi! mi chamu chunchuna.Going directly to Jesus, he said, “Rabbi!” and kissed Him.

46Linu chivavika maanza hali ni kumu sumina.Then the men seized Jesus and arrested Him.

47Kono zumwi yava zimene hembali chazwisa mukwale niku kosola kutwi kwa muhikana wo mupurisita mukulwana.And one of the bystanders drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear.

48Jesu chawamba kuvali, “mu ka ni izilile mane ili musa, cha mikwale ni che inkolyi kwiza kuni wonda?Jesus asked the crowd, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me as you would an outlaw?

49Nivena nenwe izuva nezuva hini vaku siina nnaanwe izu nva niva kuluta mwi tempele, kena muva nisumini. Kono ichi chiva pangahali kuti intimana zi zuzilizwe.”Every day I was with you, teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest Me. But this has happened that the Scriptures would be fulfilled.”

50Mi vavena ni Jesu vava musiyi niku valeha.Then everyone deserted Him and fled.

51Mu lombwaana, ya va zwete vulyo inguvo ivali kumuzingerete, avali kwi chilire Jesu. Aho vakwame hava mukwata,One young man who had been following Jesus was wearing a linen cloth around his body. They caught hold of him,

52chasiya inguvo ye line ni kutiya mapunu.but he pulled free of the linen cloth and ran away naked.

53Vavatwali Jesu kumupurisita mukulwana. Uko vavali kungene naye vonse malena vamapurisita, vakulwana, niva ñoli.They led Jesus away to the high priest, and all the chief priests, elders, and scribes assembled.

54Lyahanu Pitorosi avali kumwi chilire chaka vakazana, mane mbwita kukasika he rapa lya mupurisita mukulwana. Avake kali mukati kava ngateri, vavali kwina hembali ni muliro kuli tukusa.Peter followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he sat with the officers and warmed himself by the fire.

55Linu mukulwana wava purisita ni nkuta ya Majuda vonse vavali kungana vupaki vuhambiriza Jesu iri kuli vamwi haye. Kono kakwina vuvava wani.Now the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, but they did not find any.

56Kakuti vangi vavaleti vupaki bwa mapa kumulwisa, kono mane vupaki bwavo kena vuva zumizani.For many bore false witness against Jesus, but their testimony was inconsistent.

57Vamwe ni va zimana avo choku mu hambiriza, ni vaati,Then some men stood up and testified falsely against Him:

58“Tu vamu zuwi nati, 'Ka ni rutunune iyi itempere yi va pangwa cha manza, mi ku zwaho njeti nini pange yimwe yi sana yiva pangwa cha manza.'”“We heard Him say, ‘I will destroy this man-made temple, and in three days I will build another that is made without hands.’”

59Mane nangati aho hape vupaki vwavo ni vwa vula ku zuminzana.But even their testimony was inconsistent.

60Mu purisita mukulwana ava zimani mukati kavo ni kuvuza Jesu, “Kowina iwe ikalavo? Chintu nzi ava vakwame zivapaka kuamana nawe?So the high priest stood up before them and questioned Jesus, “Have You no answer? What are these men testifying against You?”

61Kono avali kuntontwere ni kusetava chimwi. Hape mupurisita mukulwana chamuvuza ni kuti, “Jewe Keresite, mwana wozo yo fuyaulitwe?”But Jesus remained silent and made no reply. Again the high priest questioned Him, “Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?”

62Jesu chati, “Jeme. Mi kovone Mwana o Muntu hasana kekale he yanza lyokulisa lya ziho ni kukeza ni makope e wulu.”“I am,” said Jesus, “and you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power and coming with the clouds of heaven.”

63Mu purisita mukulwaana cha halula mukanjo wakwe ni kucho, “Tusi saka vumwi vupaki?At this, the high priest tore his clothes and declared, “Why do we need any more witnesses?

64Mwazuwa vunyefuli. Ikatulo yenu jeyihi?” Mi vonse chiva yatula uvu zumwi yoswanera ifu.You have heard the blasphemy. What is your verdict?” And they all condemned Him as deserving of death.

65Vamwi chivatanga kumu swira mate ni kuwumba impata yakwe ni kumu vakula ni kucho kwali, “Porofite!” Mapokola chiva muhinda ni kuka mundama.Then some of them began to spit on Him. They blindfolded Him, struck Him with their fists, and said to Him, “Prophesy!” And the officers received Him with slaps in His face.

66Linu Pitorosi havali kwina hanze ye rapa, omwina muhikana wo mukazana wo mupurisita mukulwana cheza kwali.While Peter was in the courtyard below, one of the servant girls of the high priest came down

67Avavoni Pitorosi sina havali kuzimene ha muliro kuli tukusa, mi chalola hande kwali. Mi cha wamba, “I we nawe uvali kwina nimu Nazareta, Jesu.”and saw him warming himself there. She looked at Peter and said, “You also were with Jesus the Nazarene.”

68Kono ava sampuli, nati, “Kanimwizi kamba kuzuwisisa chizi chowamba nacho.”Lyaho che jira mwirapa.But he denied it. “I do not know or even understand what you are talking about,” he said. Then he went out to the gateway, and the rooster crowed.

69Kono muhikana wo mukazana umo chamuvona nikutanga kuwamba hape kwavo vavali kuzimene, “Uzu mukwame ji zumwi wavo!”There the servant girl saw him and again said to those standing nearby, “This man is one of them.”

70Kono cha kanana hape. Hakuhita inako zana vulyo avo vavali kuzimene ho vavali kuwamba kwa Pitorosi, “Kamaniti uzumwi wavo, kakuli nawe umu Galileya.”But he denied it again. After a little while, those standing nearby said once more to Peter, “Surely you are one of them, for you too are a Galilean.”

71Kono chatanga kulivika muchikuto ni kulinkonka, “Kanizi uzu mukwame umukwete kuwamba zakwe.”But he began to curse and swear, “I do not know this man of whom you speak!”

72Mukombwe yahaho chiwa lira lyo vuveri. Mi Pitorosi cha hupula manzwi awo Jesu ava muwambiri: “Pilio mukombwe niuseni kulira tovere, moni sampule to tatwe.” Imi cha virera ni kulira.And immediately the rooster crowed a second time. Then Peter remembered the word that Jesus had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.” And he broke down and wept.
